No, it's not necessary. XSLT works on any well-formed XML.

The details depend on the processor you are using. Most have both a
command-line interface and a programmatic API where you can supply the URIs
of the source document and stylesheet as parameters to the transformation.

Most processors will allow you to either do the XML parsing and XSLT
processing as separate operations, or to have the XSLT processor invoke the
XML parser automatically behind the scenes.
